An Anonymous Letter

Our shifts start off with a briefing. In briefing we are given information we may need like areas that need extra patrol, people with warrants and so on. There is also a lot of teasing and friendly banter that goes back and forth among the officers.

The other day in briefing we were read a letter that had been sent to the station. An unknown person typed a letter telling us a certain car was being driven by an intoxicated person.

Most of us listen in briefing and try to look for things mentioned. It is kind of hard to take something like this serious. If the person was really concerned they should have called while it was occurring not sent a letter after the fact. There is not much we can do about that.
